Temporary Autonomous Art comes to Brighton: 2-5 April 2008

Temporary Autonomous Art comes to Brighton in a derelict space near you 2-5 April 2008.

Next meeting at the Cowley Club on 5th March. Come along and find out a bit more about TAA's and offer your skills and experience. Get involved!

See http://www.subterraneanartbrighton.org/

TAA's are free, open access art exhibitions that take place in disused and reclaimed spaces throughout the UK.

Reclaiming space that has no other immediate purpose, we will be repairing, making safe and improving the building we use before transforming it into a vibrant, organic, techno artistic statement.

We want the people of Brighton to come together to create a cultural, interactive autonomous space where people are free to be, free to create and free to express themselves.

Artists, musicians, writers and performers who otherwise would have no outlet, are invited to display their work uninhibited by the normal constraints placed on the current artistic climate.

The space will be used respectfully and intelligently, for genuine community development, creating fields of opportunity for a future at no cost or harm to anyone else. We want to exhibit all forms of artwork; drawings, paintings, sculptures big and small, photography, installations and more.

Showcasing poets and vocalists, films and performance, words and concepts born out of the free party underground movement. These spaces of reclaimed freedom have been making a significant contribution to an alternative art world.

The event will run for four days from Wednesday through to Saturday. Opening from midday to midnight. We aim to offer a exhibition space, workshops, a cinema/film evening, cabaret, open mic evening and live music. We welcome people from all backgrounds to come and get involved. So if you want to contribute in any way at all please get in touch.

Please check back regularly to find out more. Send an email to mailing-subscribe@subterraneanartbrighton.org to subscribe to the mailing list.

Police Review: magazine cartoon - "In staggeringly poor taste"

from J4J campaign, 18 November 2008: We would imagine that, in the midst of the inquest into the death of Jean Charles de Menezes, publications aimed at and widely read by serving police officers would show greater sensitivity in the way they talk about fatal shootings by the police. But evidently not. The magazine "Police Review", in its 14 November edition, decided that the introduction of new rules preventing firearms officers from conferring after a shooting was best illustrated by this appalling cartoon. more
